I'm here because I'm high and I wanted to understand the deeper meaning to a particular song and I think I can get a good grasp on it now thank you!

Can you please give me the name to the song that says anything about asymptotes lmao?

I really liked the motto of Nerdstudy, well done video!

[@sanolio6131]

I was stressing cuz I didn't get it, we need more KZbin channels like this keep it simple

[@orkid5480]

your channel is great and super helpful but how far do you think you'll go with a name like nerdstudy??

[@bryankim5595]

I'm a grade 8 and I confused with the part when you say because y will never be 0 the x-axis is an asymptote. If the y is never 0 shouldn't that really mean the y-axis is the asymptote? someone help me

[@Nerdstudy]

Ah it might sound like what you are saying might be correct but try looking at the graph again. If it is approaching a y of zero but never touching zero, then the x axis is the line that the graph will never touch. Put it in another way, what is the equation of a graph that is a horizontal line exactly where the x axis is? It is actually y=0, since for every x value, y is 0. :) Hope it helped!

PERFECT, simple (despite the concept of nearing infinity). Well said, well put. Nice job indeed young man. Many thanks.

[@samueldeandrade8535]

If the definition of asymptotes is "a line that a curve approaches but never ever really touches", then just the fact that the graph y=1/x cannot have a point (y,0) is NOT enough to say x=0 is an asymptote. You just proved the graph of y=1/x doesn't touch the line x=0, you also have to prove, by your own definition, that the graph of y=1/x approaches x=0.

There is an asymptote to linear graph, you are wrong. y=x is asymptote to y=x

[@bhandarimaloo6929]

superb!!!!!!!!!!!! Clear-cut idea of an asymptote!!!!!!!!! :)

[@RyanAndrewShipley]

How did you figure out that the y axis is an asymptote? How does the fact that X cannot equal zero prove that?

[@RyanAndrewShipley]

And great video! I loved the style. Im taking a college algebra course and this helped me a lot.

[@RyanAndrewShipley]

How? Could you help me out?

[@Nerdstudy]

Good question! If you want to confirm if the 'y' axis is your asymptote, you've gotta look for 2 things: 1) NO TOUCH! Make sure your graph never touches the 'y' axis. If the graph can touch the 'y' axis, then the 'y' axis is definitely not the asymptote. - The only way a graph can touch the 'y' axis is when x is equal to 0.. naturally because the 'y' axis itself is parked right on an x of 0. And since our graph cannot be an 'x' of 0, we know that our graph isn't touching the 'y' axis. So far so good! 2) MUST APPROACH CONSTANTLY! Just because the graph has no x value of zero it doesn't necessarily guarantee that the 'y' axis is its asymptote. We need to also observe that the graph gets closer to 'y' constantly. If it's getting closer and closer (infinitely closer) to the 'y' axis, while somehow still respecting the condition we talked about in #1 (that it doesn't touch the 'y' axis), then we've got ourselves an asymptote. - Notice how there nothing wrong with choosing a small positive 'x' like 0.000000000001. This would give us a point really close to an 'x' of 0. The y value would be at 1 trillion, and the graph to our eyes might even look like it's touching the 'y' axis, but it isn't for sure.. because we know that it's not an 'x' of 0. [Remember the only way the graph is touching the y-axis is if it can have a point at an 'x' of zero] So what if we made that 'x' even smaller? like 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001. We're definitely allowed to do that for this graph... nothing wrong with it! We know we would get way closer to an x of 0 now, making the graph really really really close to the y-axis. However, we also know that we are STILL not actually touching the y-axis. Imagine doing this process constantly, where we keep choosing 'x' values closer to 0, and realizing that we have a graph that clearly constantly gets closer to the y-axis, but at the same time cannot actually hit the y-axis. Running this experiment in a loop over and over again, in combination of our condition in #1 makes us see that the y-axis is in fact the asymptote!

[@RyanAndrewShipley]

Thanks!

Are You Going to make more videos on college algebra ideas (Specifically functions)? If so ill sub!

[@hanabanana7774]

a curve approaches it but never touches it

[@Iggyhaxor]

The horizon line is an asymptote. You can see the horizon in the distance and say ima go to that point but as you get closer it gets further away so by the time you reach your original horizon line its moved further in the distance.

[@phoebemaeflorece539]

found another channel that deserves a lot of subsciberss

[@ifykyk5059]

I thought it was possible for the function to intercept an asymptote, for example oblique asymptotes. Is it not possible for the function to pass through?

[@mwansachikonde4193]

Thanks you so much, I have really understood asymptotes now.

[@Nerdstudy]

You are most welcome

[@HappinessYata]

Thank a lot ! You saved me xD

[@jackkovar7806]

Thank you for speaking slowly.

[@nadaghadanfar8176]

I don't get the part where u said that line can never have an asymptote.. what about a parallel line wouldn't they never touch? isn't that an asymptote?

[@TheAnuraag79]

The curve may pass through points on the asymptote. Consider this function : x/(1+x^2). Here the asymptote is the line y=0 (x-axis) but the curve passes through the origin.

[@nwizg523]

This is not exponential function

[@MrKem.]

there's just one or 2 things wrong.. how do the asymptotes become wider or narrower or translate left, right, up or down?

Sir when in the first graph X or Y would be zero

[@firstyfirst]

I find indian on each and every video i watch

[@tahirasabha1823]

Can we just keep in simple by saying that when Y goes to +ive or - ive infinity the value of X remains same that shows that y is an asymptote and same with X

[@barrydavis331]

Simple for you might not be simple for the next person. Also, your statement is incorrect. As the function approaches positive or negative infinity, the independent variable x does not remain the same, it approaches zero.This video is one way of explaining and definitely a helpful introduction to asymptotes.

Thanks sir

[@colleendoll4934]

The statement "an asymptote is a line that a curve approaches but never ever really touches" is incorrect. While this is true for vertical asymptotes, horizontal asymptotes can be crossed. For example y=sinx/x
